269 equal divisions of the octave (abbreviated 269edo or 269ed2), also called 269-tone equal temperament (269tet) or 269 equal temperament (269et) when viewed under a regular temperament perspective, is the tuning system that divides the octave into 269 equal parts of about 4.46 ¢ each. Each step represents a frequency ratio of 21/269, or the 269th root of 2.

269edo is inconsistent in the 5-odd-limit and the errors of both harmonics 3 and 5 are quite large. The patent val tempers out 6144/6125 in the 7-limit, 540/539 and 5632/5625 in the 11-limit and 364/363 and 676/675 in the 13-limit. The 269c val tempers out 225/224 and 4375/4374 in the 7-limit, and 269ce 385/384 in the 11-limit, so that it supports and provides an excellent tuning for catakleismic and marvel temperaments.
